Description

VARIANT ENZYMES WITH IMPROVED SOLUBILITY AND USES THEREOF This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No.63/585972 filed September 28, 2023, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entireties. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present disclosure relates to variant lipolytic enzymes, more particularly variant lipolytic enzymes that have improved solubility and/or stability and/or improved hydrolytic activity on a polyester. Such variant lipolytic enzymes find use in the degradation of polyesters, such as polyethylene terephthalate. Also provided are compositions and methods related to such variant lipolytic enzymes. REFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY The official copy of the sequence listing is submitted electronically via Patent Center as an XML formatted sequence listing with a file named “NB42265PCT_SequenceListing” created on September 10, 2024 and having a size of 54,941 bytes and is filed concurrently with the specification. The sequence listing contained in this XML formatted document is part of the specification and is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. BACKGROUND Polyesters, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), are used in a large number of products and processes, such as in the manufacture of clothes, carpets, various packaging and plastics (e.g. automobile plastics), which has led to the accumulation of polyesters in landfills and may be an ecological problem. Various enzymes, such as lipolytic enzymes, are able to catalyse the hydrolysis of a variety of polymers, including polyesters. Some of these enzymes are being investigated for use in a number of industrial applications, such as detergents for laundry and dishwashing applications, as degrading enzymes for processing biomass and food, as biocatalysts in detoxification of environmental pollutants or for the treatment of polyester fabrics in the textile industry. The use of such enzymes is of particular interest for hydrolysing polyesters, such as PET (polyethylene terephthalate). However, various factors make further improvement of lipolytic enzymes advantageous. For example, improved activity and/or improved stability are advantageous for use in compositions for treating fabrics and/or textiles and for methods for degrading polyesters. Another challenge relating to lipolytic enzymes is their solubility. The solubility of lipolytic enzymes is an important factor when producing these enzymes since lipolytic enzymes of low solubility are more likely to precipitate during fermentation and downstream processing. A lipolytic enzyme with high solubility can be processed at higher concentrations, making the process of purifying the enzyme cheaper, faster and more sustainable. There is a continuing need for lipolytic enzymes with improved solubility, activity and/or improved stability that can be used in compositions for treating fabrics and/or textiles and for methods for degrading polyesters.

As used herein, a lipolytic enzyme includes an enzyme, polypeptide, or protein exhibiting a lipid degrading capability such as a capability of degrading a triglyceride or a phospholipid. The lipolytic enzyme can be, for example, a lipase, a phospholipase, an esterase or a cutinase. Lipolytic enzymes can be enzymes having α/β hydrolase fold. These enzymes typically have a catalytic triad of serine, aspartic acid and histidine residues. The α/β hydrolases include lipases and cutinases. Cutinases show little, if any, interfacial activation, where lipases often undergo a conformational change in the presence of a lipid-water interface (Longhi and Cambillau (1999) Biochimica et Biophysica Acta 1441:185-96). An active fragment of a lipolytic enzyme is a portion of a lipolytic enzyme that retains a lipid degrading capability. An active fragment retains the catalytic triad. As used herein, lipolytic activity can be determined according to any procedure known in the art (see, e.g., Gupta et al., Biotechnol. Appl. Biochem., 37:63-71, 2003; U.S. Pat. No.5,990,069; and International Patent Publication No. WO 96/18729A1). In some embodiments, lipolytic enzymes of the present disclosure are α/β hydrolases.

In some embodiments, lipolytic enzymes of the present disclosure are lipases. In some embodiments, lipolytic enzymes of the present disclosure are cutinases. In some embodiments, lipolytic enzymes of the present disclosure are polyesterases. As used herein, a “a carboxylic ester hydrolase” (E.C.3.1.1) refers to an enzyme that acts on carboxylic acid esters. As used herein, a “lipase”, “lipase enzyme”, “lipolytic enzymes”, “lipolytic polypeptides”, or “lipolytic proteins” refers to an enzyme, polypeptide, or protein exhibiting a lipid degrading capability such as a capability of degrading a triglyceride or a phospholipid. The lipolytic enzyme may be, for example, a lipase, a phospholipase, an esterase, a polyesterase, or a cutinase. As used herein, lipolytic activity may be determined according to any procedure known in the art (see, e.g., Gupta et al, Biotechnol. Appl. Biochem., 37:63-71, 2003; U.S. Pat. No. 5,990,069; and International Patent Publication No. WO 96/18729A1). In one embodiment, lipolytic activity can be determined on 4-nitrophenyl butyrate (pNB) as provided in Example 2. A used herein, “cutinase” refers to lipolytic enzymes capable of hydrolyzing cutin substrates. Cutinases include those derived from various fungi and from bacterial sources. Cutinases include those described in P. E. Kolattukudy, “Lipases”, Ed. B Borgstrom and H. L. Brockman, Elsevier 1984, 471-504; S. Longhi et al., J. of Molecular Biology, 268 (4), 779-799 (1997); U.S Pat. No.5,827,719; WO 94/14963; WO 94/14964; WO 00/05389; Appl. Environm. Microbiol 64, 2794-2799, 1998; Proteins: Structure, Function and Genetics 26, 442-458, 1996; J. of Computational Chemistry 17, 1783-1803, 1996; Protein Engineering 6, 157-165, 1993. Cutinases may be naturally occurring or genetically modified cutinase obtained by UV irradiation, N- methyl-N'-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) treatment, ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) treatment, nitrous acid treatment, acridine treatment or the like, recombinant strains induced by the genetic engineering procedures such as cell fusion and gene recombination and so forth. As used herein, the term “polyesterase” or “PETase” or “PEThydrolase” refers to an enzyme that has significant capability to catalyze the hydrolysis and/or surface modification of polyester. Suitable polyesterases may be isolated from animal, plant, fungal and bacterial sources. Suitable polyesterases are also described in Gao et al, Enzyme and Microbial Technology 150 (2021) 109868. The aforementioned microorganisms may be, in addition to being isolated from wild strains, may be isolated from any of mutant strains obtained by UV irradiation, N-methyl-N'-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) treatment, ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) treatment, nitrous acid treatment, acridine treatment or the like, recombinant strains induced by the genetic engineering procedures such as cell fusion and gene recombination and so forth. The polyesterase may catalyze the hydrolysis and/or surface modification of a polyester selected from the group consisting of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyethylene isosorbide terephthalate (PEIT), polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxy alkanoate (PHA), polybutylene succinate (PBS), polybutylene succinate adipate (PBSA), polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), polyethylene furanoate (PEF), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyester polyurethane, poly(ethylene adipate) (PEA), and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the variant lipolytic enzymes provided herein have improved solubility. In particular, the variants of the invention exhibit decreased precipitation, and as such increased solubility during fermentation. Protein solubility may be determined according to the procedure described in Example 2 described herein. In one embodiment, the variant lipolytic enzyme has improved solubility compared to a parent or reference lipolytic enzyme, wherein the parent lipolytic enzyme is lacking a substitution selected from the group consisting of X183K , X040K, X109K and any one combination thereof. In one embodiment, the variant lipolytic enzyme has improved solubility compared to a parent or reference lipolytic enzyme, wherein the parent lipolytic enzyme is lacking a substitution selected from the group consisting of L183K , A/R040K, G109K and any one combination thereof. In one embodiment, the variant lipolytic enzyme has improved solubility compared to a parent or reference lipolytic enzyme of at least 5%, e.g., at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 100%, at least 125%, at least 150%, at least 175%, at least 200%, at least 250%, at least 300%, at least 400%, at least 500%, at least 600%, at least 700%, or more, wherein the parent lipolytic enzyme is lacking a substitution selected from the group consisting of X183K , X040K, X109K and any one combination thereof. In one embodiment, the variant lipolytic enzyme has improved solubility compared to a parent or reference lipolytic enzyme of at least 5%, e.g., at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 100%, at least 125%, at least 150%, at least 175%, at least 200%, at least 250%, at least 300%, at least 400%, at least 500%, at least 600%, at least 700%, or more, wherein the parent lipolytic enzyme is lacking a substitution selected from the group consisting of L183K , A/R040K, G109K and any one combination thereof. In addition to improved solubility, the variants of the invention may have one or more improved properties compared to the parent or reference lipolytic enzyme. The one or more improved properties may be selected from the group consisting of stability, hydrolytic activity on a polyester (improved polyesterase activity), catalytic efficiency, catalytic rate, chemical stability, oxidation stability, pH activity, pH stability, polyester degrading activity, polyester specificity, proteolytic stability, solubility, specific activity, stability under storage conditions, substrate binding, substrate cleavage, substrate specificity, substrate stability, surface properties, thermal activity, and thermostability. As used herein, “% identity or percent identity” refers to sequence similarity. Percent identity may be determined using standard techniques known in the art (See e.g., Smith and Waterman, Adv. Appl. Math.2:482 [1981]; Needleman and Wunsch, J. Mol. Biol.48:443 [1970]; Pearson and Lipman, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:2444 [1988]; software programs such as GAP, BESTFIT, FASTA, and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics Software Package (Genetics Computer Group, Madison, WI); and Devereux et al., Nucl. Acid Res.12:387-395 [1984]). One example of a useful algorithm is PILEUP. PILEUP creates a multiple sequence alignment from a group of related sequences using progressive, pair-wise alignments. It can also plot a tree showing the clustering relationships used to create the alignment. PILEUP uses a simplification of the progressive alignment method of Feng and Doolittle (See, Feng and Doolittle, J. Mol. Evol.35:351-360 [1987]). The method is similar to that described by Higgins and Sharp (See, Higgins and Sharp, CABIOS 5:151-153 [1989]). Useful PILEUP parameters include a default gap weight of 3.00, a default gap length weight of 0.10, and weighted end gaps. Other useful algorithm is the BLAST algorithms described by Altschul et al., (See, Altschul et al., J. Mol. Biol.215:403-410 [1990]; and Karlin and Altschul, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:5873-5787 [1993]). The BLAST program uses several search parameters, most of which are set to the default values. As used herein, “homologous proteins”, “homologs” or “homologous proteins” refers to proteins that have distinct similarity in primary, secondary, and/or tertiary structure. Protein homology can refer to the similarity in linear amino acid sequence when proteins are aligned. Homology can be determined by amino acid sequence alignment, e.g., using a program such as BLAST, MUSCLE, or CLUSTAL. Homologous search of protein sequences can be done using BLASTP and PSI-BLAST from NCBI BLAST with threshold (E-value cut-off) at 0.001. (Altschul et al., “Gapped BLAST and PSI BLAST a new generation of protein database search programs”, Nucleic Acids Res, Set 1;25(17):3389-402(1997)). The BLAST program uses several search parameters, most of which are set to the default values. The NCBI BLAST algorithm finds the most relevant sequences in terms of biological similarity but is not recommended for query sequences of less than 20 residues (Altschul et al., Nucleic Acids Res, 25:3389-3402, 1997 and Schaffer et al., Nucleic Acids Res, 29:2994-3005, 2001). Exemplary default BLAST parameters for a nucleic acid sequence searches include: Neighboring words threshold=11; E- value cutoff=10; Scoring Matrix=NUC.3.1 (match=1, mismatch=-3); Gap Opening=5; and Gap Extension=2. Exemplary default BLAST parameters for amino acid sequence searches include: Word size = 3; E-value cutoff=10; Scoring Matrix=BLOSUM62; Gap Opening=11; and Gap extension=1. Using this information, protein sequences can be grouped and/or a phylogenetic tree built therefrom. Amino acid sequences can be entered in a program such as the Vector NTI Advance suite and a Guide Tree can be created using the Neighbor Joining (NJ) method (Saitou and Nei, Mol Biol Evol, 4:406-425, 1987). The tree construction can be calculated using Kimura’s correction for sequence distance and ignoring positions with gaps. A program such as AlignX can display the calculated distance values in parentheses following the molecule name displayed on the phylogenetic tree. A percent (%) amino acid sequence identity value is determined by the number of matching identical residues divided by the total number of residues of the “reference” sequence including any gaps created by the program for optimal/maximum alignment. If a sequence is 90% identical to SEQ ID NO: A, SEQ ID NO: A is the “reference” sequence. BLAST algorithms refer the “reference” sequence as “query” sequence. The CLUSTAL W algorithm is another example of a sequence alignment algorithm (See, Thompson et al., Nucleic Acids Res, 22:4673-4680, 1994). Default parameters for the CLUSTAL W algorithm include: Gap opening penalty=10.0; Gap extension penalty=0.05; Protein weight matrix=BLOSUM series; DNA weight matrix=IUB; Delay divergent sequences %=40; Gap separation distance=8; DNA transitions weight=0.50; List hydrophilic residues=GPSNDQEKR; Use negative matrix=OFF; Toggle Residue specific penalties=ON; Toggle hydrophilic penalties=ON; and Toggle end gap separation penalty=OFF. In CLUSTAL algorithms, deletions occurring at either terminus are included. For example, a variant with a five amino acid deletion at either terminus (or within the polypeptide) of a polypeptide of 500 amino acids would have a percent sequence identity of 99% (495/500 identical residues × 100) relative to the “reference” polypeptide. Such a variant would be encompassed by a variant having “at least 99% sequence identity” to the polypeptide. In some embodiments, the variant lipolytic enzymes provided herein comprise an amino acid sequence having at least 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:2.

For expression and production of a protein of interest (e.g., one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein) in a cell, one or more expression vector comprising one or more copy of a polynucleotide encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein, and in some instances comprising multiple copies, is transformed into the cell under conditions suitable for expression of the variant. In some embodiments, a polynucleotide sequence encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein (as well as other sequences included in the vector) is integrated into the genome of the host cell, while in other embodiments, a plasmid vector comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein remains as autonomous extra-chromosomal element within the cell. Some embodiments provide both extrachromosomal nucleic acid elements as well as incoming nucleotide sequences that are integrated into the host cell genome. The vectors described herein are useful for production of the one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein. In some embodiments, a polynucleotide construct encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein is present on an integrating vector that enables the integration and optionally the amplification of the polynucleotide encoding the variant into the host chromosome. Examples of sites for integration are well known to those skilled in the art. In some embodiments, transcription of a polynucleotide encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein is effectuated by a promoter that is the wild-type promoter for the parent enzyme. In some other embodiments, the promoter is heterologous to the one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein, but is functional in the host cell. Exemplary promoters for use in bacterial host cells include, but are not limited to the amyE, amyQ, amyL, pstS, sacB, pSPAC, pAprE, pVeg, pHpaII promoters; the promoter of the B. stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase gene; the B. amyloliquefaciens (BAN) amylase gene; the B. subtilis alkaline protease gene; the B. clausii alkaline protease gene; the B. pumilis xylosidase gene; the B. thuringiensis cryIIIA; and the B. licheniformis alpha-amylase gene. Additional promoters include, but are not limited to the A4 promoter, as well as phage Lambda PR or PL promoters and the E. coli lac, trp or tac promoters. One or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein can be produced in host cells of any suitable microorganism, including bacteria and fungi. In some embodiments, one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein can be produced in Gram-positive bacteria. In some embodiments, the host cells are Bacillus spp., Streptomyces spp., Escherichia spp., Aspergillus spp., Trichoderma spp., Pseudomonas spp., Corynebacterium spp., Saccharomyces spp., or Pichia spp. In some embodiments, one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein is produced by Bacillus sp. host cells. Examples of Bacillus sp. host cells that find use in the production of the one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein include, but are not limited to B. licheniformis, B. lentus, B. subtilis, B. amyloliquefaciens, B. brevis, B. stearothermophilus, B. alkalophilus, B. coagulans, B. circulans, B. pumilis, B. thuringiensis, B. clausii, and B. megaterium, as well as other organisms within the genus Bacillus. In some embodiments, B. subtilis host cells are used to produce the variants described herein. USPNs 5,264,366 and 4,760,025 (RE 34,606) describe various Bacillus host strains that can be used to produce one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein, although other suitable strains can be used. Several bacterial strains that can be used to produce one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein include non-recombinant (i.e., wild-type) Bacillus sp. strains, as well as variants of naturally occurring strains and/or recombinant strains. In some embodiments, the host strain is a recombinant strain, wherein a polynucleotide encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein has been introduced into the host. In some embodiments, the host strain is a B. subtilis host strain and particularly a recombinant B. subtilis host strain. Numerous B. subtilis strains are known, including, but not limited to for example, 1A6 (ATCC 39085), 168 (1A01), SB19, W23, Ts85, B637, PB1753 through PB1758, PB3360, JH642, 1A243 (ATCC 39,087), ATCC 21332, ATCC 6051, MI113, DE100 (ATCC 39,094), GX4931, PBT 110, and PEP 211strain (See e.g., Hoch et al., Genetics 73:215–228 (1973); See also, US 4,450,235; US 4,302,544; and EP 0134048). The use of B. subtilis as an expression host cell is well known in the art (See e.g., Palva et al., Gene 19:81-87 (1982); Fahnestock and Fischer, J. Bacteriol., 165:796–804 (1986); and Wang et al., Gene 69:39–47 (1988)). In some embodiments, the Bacillus host cell is a Bacillus sp. that includes a mutation or deletion in at least one of the following genes: degU, degS, degR and degQ. In some embodiments, the mutation is in a degU gene, and in some embodiments the mutation is degU(Hy)32 (See e.g., Msadek et al., J. Bacteriol.172:824-834 (1990); and Olmos et al., Mol. Gen. Genet.253:562–567 (1997)). In some embodiments, the Bacillus host comprises a mutation or deletion in scoC4 (See e.g., Caldwell et al., J. Bacteriol.183:7329-7340 (2001)); spoIIE (See e.g., Arigoni et al., Mol. Microbiol.31:1407-1415 (1999)); and/or oppA or other genes of the opp operon (See e.g., Perego et al., Mol. Microbiol.5:173-185 (1991)). Indeed, it is contemplated that any mutation in the opp operon that causes the same phenotype as a mutation in the oppA gene will find use in some embodiments of the altered Bacillus strain described herein. In some embodiments, these mutations occur alone, while in other embodiments, combinations of mutations are present. In some embodiments, an altered Bacillus host cell strain that can be used to produce one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein is a Bacillus host strain that already includes a mutation in one or more of the above-mentioned genes. In addition, Bacillus sp. host cells that comprise mutation(s) and/or deletion(s) of endogenous protease genes find use. In some embodiments, the Bacillus host cell comprises a deletion of the aprE and the nprE genes. In other embodiments, the Bacillus sp. host cell comprises a deletion of 5 protease genes, while in other embodiments the Bacillus sp. host cell comprises a deletion of 9 protease genes (See e.g., US 2005/0202535). Host cells are transformed with one or more nucleic acid sequence encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein using any suitable method known in the art. Methods for introducing a nucleic acid (e.g., DNA) into Bacillus cells or E. coli cells utilizing plasmid DNA constructs or vectors and transforming such plasmid DNA constructs or vectors into such cells are well known. In some embodiments, the plasmids are subsequently isolated from E. coli cells and transformed into Bacillus cells. However, it is not essential to use intervening microorganisms such as E. coli, and in some embodiments, a DNA construct or vector is directly introduced into a Bacillus host. Exemplary methods for introducing one or more nucleic acid sequence described herein into Bacillus cells are described in, for example, Ferrari et al., “Genetics,” in Harwood et al. [eds.], Bacillus, Plenum Publishing Corp. (1989), pp.57-72; Saunders et al., J. Bacteriol. 157:718-726 (1984); Hoch et al., J. Bacteriol.93:1925-1937 (1967); Mann et al., Current Microbiol.13:131-135 (1986); Holubova, Folia Microbiol.30:97 (1985); Chang et al., Mol. Gen. Genet.168:11-115 (1979); Vorobjeva et al., FEMS Microbiol. Lett.7:261-263 (1980); Smith et al., Appl. Env. Microbiol.51:634 (1986); Fisher et al., Arch. Microbiol.139:213-217 (1981); and McDonald, J. Gen. Microbiol.130:203 (1984)). Indeed, such methods as transformation, including protoplast transformation and transfection, transduction, and protoplast fusion are well known and suited for use herein. Methods known in the art to transform Bacillus cells include such methods as plasmid marker rescue transformation, which involves the uptake of a donor plasmid by competent cells carrying a partially homologous resident plasmid (See, Contente et al., Plasmid 2:555-571 (1979); Haima et al., Mol. Gen. Genet.223:185-191 (1990); Weinrauch et al., J. Bacteriol.154:1077-1087 (1983); and Weinrauch et al., J. Bacteriol.169:1205-1211 (1987)). In this method, the incoming donor plasmid recombines with the homologous region of the resident “helper” plasmid in a process that mimics chromosomal transformation. In addition to commonly used methods, in some embodiments, host cells are directly transformed with a DNA construct or vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein (i.e., an intermediate cell is not used to amplify, or otherwise process, the DNA construct or vector prior to introduction into the host cell). Introduction of a DNA construct or vector described herein into the host cell includes those physical and chemical methods known in the art to introduce a nucleic acid sequence (e.g., DNA sequence) into a host cell without insertion into the host genome. Such methods include, but are not limited to calcium chloride precipitation, electroporation, naked DNA, and liposomes. In additional embodiments, DNA constructs or vector are co-transformed with a plasmid, without being inserted into the plasmid. In further embodiments, a selective marker is deleted from the altered Bacillus strain by methods known in the art (See, Stahl et al., J. Bacteriol.158:411-418 (1984); and Palmeros et al., Gene 247:255 -264 (2000)). In some embodiments, the transformed cells are cultured in conventional nutrient media. The suitable specific culture conditions, such as temperature, pH and the like are known to those skilled in the art and are well described in the scientific literature. Some embodiments provide a culture (e.g., cell culture) comprising one or more variant lipolytic enzyme or nucleic acid sequence described herein. In some embodiments, host cells transformed with one or more polynucleotide sequence encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein are cultured in a suitable nutrient medium under conditions permitting the expression of the variant, after which the resulting variant is recovered from the culture. In some embodiments, the variant produced by the cells is recovered from the culture medium by conventional procedures, including, but not limited to, for example, separating the host cells from the medium by centrifugation or filtration, precipitating the proteinaceous components of the supernatant or filtrate by means of a salt (e.g., ammonium sulfate), and chromatographic purification (e.g., ion exchange, gel filtration, affinity, etc.). In some embodiments, one or more variant lipolytic enzyme produced by a recombinant host cell is secreted into the culture medium. A nucleic acid sequence that encodes a purification facilitating domain may be used to facilitate purification of the variant. A vector or DNA construct comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein may further comprise a nucleic acid sequence encoding a purification facilitating domain to facilitate purification of the variant (See e.g., Kroll et al., DNA Cell Biol. 12:441-53 (1993)). Such purification facilitating domains include, but are not limited to, for example, metal chelating peptides such as histidine-tryptophan modules that allow purification on immobilized metals (See, Porath, Protein Expr. Purif.3:263-281 [1992]), protein A domains that allow purification on immobilized immunoglobulin, and the domain utilized in the FLAGS extension/affinity purification system. The inclusion of a cleavable linker sequence such as Factor XA or enterokinase (e.g., sequences available from Invitrogen, San Diego, CA) between the purification domain and the heterologous protein also find use to facilitate purification. The present variant proteins can be produced in host cells, for example, by secretion or intracellular expression, using methods well-known in the art. Fermentation, separation, and concentration techniques are well known in the art and conventional methods can be used to prepare a concentrated, enzyme-containing solution. Host cells may be further processed, such as to release enzyme or to improve cell separation, for example by heating or by changing pH or salt content or by treating with enzymes including hen egg white lysozyme, T4 lysozyme, or enzymes described in WO2022047149. For production scale recovery, variant polypeptides can be enriched or partially purified as generally described above by removing cells via flocculation with polymers. Alternatively, the enzyme can be enriched or purified by microfiltration followed by concentration by ultrafiltration using available membranes and equipment. However, for some applications, the enzyme does not need to be enriched or purified, and whole broth culture can be lysed and used without further treatment. The enzyme can then be processed, for example, into granules. A variety of methods can be used to determine the level of production of one or more mature variant lipolytic enzyme described herein in a host cell. Such methods include, but are not limited to, for example, methods that utilize either polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies specific for the enzyme. Exemplary methods include, but are not limited to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), radioimmunoassays (RIA), fluorescent immunoassays (FIA), and fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS). These and other assays are well known in the art (See e.g., Maddox et al., J. Exp. Med.158:1211 (1983)). In another embodiment, the method that can be used includes the assays provided in Examples 2 and 3. Some other embodiments provide methods for making or producing one or more mature variant lipolytic enzyme described herein. A mature variant does not include a signal peptide or a propeptide sequence. Some methods comprise making or producing one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein in a recombinant bacterial host cell, such as for example, a Bacillus sp. cell (e.g., a B. subtilis cell). Other embodiments provide a method of producing one or more variant described herein, wherein the method comprises cultivating a recombinant host cell comprising a recombinant expression vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein under conditions conducive to the production of the variant. Some such methods further comprise recovering the variant from the culture. Further embodiments provide methods of producing one or more variant lipolytic enzyme described herein, wherein the methods comprise: (a) introducing a recombinant expression vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding the variant into a population of cells (e.g., bacterial cells, such as B. subtilis cells); and (b) culturing the cells in a culture medium under conditions conducive to produce the variant encoded by the expression vector. Some such methods further comprise: (c) isolating the variant from the cells or from the culture medium.

In some embodiments, the adjunct ingredient is selected from surfactants, enzyme stabilizers, builder compounds, polymeric compounds, bleaching agents, additional enzymes, suds suppressors, dispersants, lime-soap dispersants, soil suspension agents, softening agents, anti-redeposition agents, corrosion inhibitors, and combinations thereof. In some further embodiments, the laundry detergent compositions described herein comprise one or more enzyme stabilizer. In some embodiments, the enzyme stabilizer is a water- soluble source of calcium and/or magnesium ions. In some embodiments, the enzyme stabilizers include oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, and inorganic divalent metal salts, including alkaline earth metals, such as calcium salts. In some embodiments, the enzymes employed herein are stabilized by the presence of water-soluble sources of zinc (II), calcium (II) and/or magnesium (II) ions in the finished compositions that provide such ions to the enzymes, as well as other metal ions (e.g., barium (II), scandium (II), iron (II), manganese (II), aluminum (III), tin (II), cobalt (II), copper (II), nickel (II), and oxovanadium (IV)). Chlorides and sulfates also find use in some embodiments. Exemplary oligosaccharides and polysaccharides (e.g., dextrins) are described, for example, in WO07145964. In some embodiments, the laundry detergent compositions described herein contain reversible protease inhibitors selected from a boron- containing compound (e.g., borate, 4-formyl phenyl boronic acid, and phenyl-boronic acid derivatives, such as, e.g., are described in WO9641859); a peptide aldehyde (such as, e.g., is described in WO2009118375 and WO2013004636), and combinations thereof. The cleaning compositions herein are typically formulated such that, during use in aqueous cleaning operations, the wash water will have a pH of from about 3.0 to about 11. Liquid product formulations are typically formulated to have a neat pH from about 5.0 to about 9.0, more preferably from about 7.5 to about 9. Granular laundry products are typically formulated to have a pH from about 8.0 to about 11.0. Techniques for controlling pH at recommended usage levels include the use of buffers, alkalis, acids, etc., and are well known to those skilled in the art. Suitable high pH cleaning compositions typically have a neat pH of from about 9.0 to about 11.0, or even a neat pH of from 9.5 to 10.5. Such cleaning compositions typically comprise a sufficient amount of a pH modifier, such as sodium hydroxide, monoethanolamine, or hydrochloric acid, to provide such cleaning composition with a neat pH of from about 9.0 to about 11.0. Such compositions typically comprise at least one base-stable enzyme. In some embodiments, the compositions are liquids, while in other embodiments, they are solids. In one embodiment, the cleaning compositions include those having a pH of from 7.4 to pH 11.5, or pH 7.4 to pH 11.0, or pH 7.5 to pH 11.5, or pH 7.5 to pH 11.0, or pH 7.5 to pH 10.5, or pH 7.5 to pH 10.0, or pH 7.5 to pH 9.5, or pH 7.5 to pH 9.0, or pH 7.5 to pH 8.5, or pH 7.5 to pH 8.0, or pH 7.6 to pH 11.5, or pH 7.6 to pH 11.0, or pH 7.6 to pH 10.5, or pH 8.7 to pH 10.0, or pH 8.0 to pH 11.5, or pH 8.0 to pH 11.0, or pH 8.0 to pH 10.5, or pH 8.0 to pH 10.0. Concentrations of detergent compositions in typical wash solutions throughout the world vary from less than about 800 ppm of detergent composition (“low detergent concentration geographies”), for example about 667 ppm in Japan, to between about 800 ppm to about 2000 ppm (“medium detergent concentration geographies”), for example about 975 ppm in U.S. and about 1500 ppm in Brazil, to greater than about 2000 ppm (“high detergent concentration geographies”), for example about 4500 ppm to about 5000 ppm in Europe and about 6000 ppm in high suds phosphate builder geographies. In some embodiments, the detergent compositions described herein may be utilized at a temperature of from about 10ºC to about 60ºC, or from about 20ºC to about 60ºC, or from about 30ºC to about 60ºC, from about 40ºC to about 60ºC, from about 40ºC to about 55ºC, or all ranges within 10ºC to 60ºC. In some embodiments, the detergent compositions described herein are used in “cold water washing” at temperatures of from about 10ºC to about 40ºC, or from about 20ºC to about 30ºC, from about 15ºC to about 25ºC, from about 15ºC to about 35ºC, or all ranges within 10ºC to 40ºC. As a further example, different geographies typically have different water hardness. Water hardness is usually described in terms of the grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+. Hardness is a measure of the amount of calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) in the water. Most water in the United States is hard, but the degree of hardness varies. Moderately hard (60- 120 ppm) to hard (121-181 ppm) water has 60 to 181 parts per million (parts per million converted to grains per U.S. gallon is ppm # divided by 17.1 equals grains per gallon) of hardness minerals. Table 1. Water Hardness Levels Water Grains per gallon Parts per million Soft less than 10 less than 17
Figure imgf000033_0001
European water hardness is typically greater than about 10.5 (for example about 10.5 to about 20.0) grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+ (e.g., about 15 grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+). North American water hardness is typically greater than Japanese water hardness, but less than European water hardness. For example, North American water hardness can be between about 3 to about 10 grains, about 3 to about 8 grains or about 6 grains. Japanese water hardness is typically lower than North American water hardness, usually less than about 4, for example about 3 grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+.

EXAMPLES It should be understood that these Examples, while indicating embodiments of the disclosure, are given by way of illustration only. From the above discussion and these Examples, one skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications of the disclosure to adapt it to various usages and conditions. Such modifications are also intended to fall within the scope of the appended claims EXAMPLE 1 Recombinant expression of P. mendocina lipolytic enzymevariants A synthetic, codon-optimized gene (SEQ ID NO:1) encoding the wild-type Pseudomonas mendocina lipolytic enzyme (SEQ ID NO:2) was made and served as template for the construction of plasmids expressing the WT and variant polypeptides thereof. Molecular biology tools known in the art were used to introduce amino acid substitutions at positions of interest. Lipolytic enzyme genes were produced by Integrated DNA Technologies Inc. (IDT). Elements of the constructs included: DNA fragments comprising a nucleotide encoding a hybrid aprE-P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme signal peptide sequence (SEQ ID NO:3), the sequence corresponding to the gene encoding each of the mature lipolytic enzymes of this study, and the BPN’ terminator (SEQ ID: NO:4). A suitable Bacillus subtilis strain was used to introduce the expression cassettes. The transformation mixtures were plated onto LA plates containing 5 ppm kanamycin and incubated overnight at 37 ºC. Single colonies were picked and grown in Luria broth at 37°C under antibiotic selection. EXAMPLE 2 Characterization of P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme variants Sample generation To generate the enzyme samples for testing, the transformed B. subtilis cells were grown in 96 well microtiter plates at 37°C for 48 hours in cultivation medium (enriched semi-defined media based on MOPS buffer, with urea as the major nitrogen source, glucose as the main carbon source, and supplemented with 1% soytone for robust cell growth). Cultures were harvested by centrifugation at 3600 rpm for 15 min and filtered through Multiscreen® filter plates (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) using a Millipore vacuum system. The filtered culture supernatants were used for the assays described below. In certain instances, the bacillus cultures were grown in 50 mL shake flasks using similar media and growth conditions, and cell broth was clarified by centrifugation. Enzyme concentration determination Clarified culture broth obtained as described above was diluted in 100mM Tris pH 8 in 96 well plates (NUNC, ThermoFisher). The enzyme concentration was determined by loading samples onto a Zorbax 300 SB-C3 column (Agilent) and running a linear gradient of 0.1% Trifluoroacetic acid in water (Buffer A) and 0.1% Trifluoroacetic acid in Acetonitrile (Buffer B) with detection at 220nm column on UHPLC. The enzyme concentration of the samples was calculated using a standard curve of a purified enzyme (PEV328, SEQ ID NO:5). Protein solubility determination with ammonium sulfate precipitation assay The relative solubility of P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme variants was measured by precipitation with ammonium sulfate as described here. A concentrated solution of 3.6M ammonium sulfate was prepared at in 20mM Tris pH 8. The clarified culture broth samples were filtered in MTPs, and 40ul of each broth was added into a well of a 96 well plate (Costar #9017) and mixed with 60ul of ammonium sulfate solutions (of varying concentrations from zero to 3.6M) in triplicates. These assay plates were incubated at room temperature with shaking for 30mins.After this incubation, the resulting slurry mix was transferred to a 96 well filter plate (Millipore, MSHVN4550), and the filtrate was collected by centrifugation on a benchtop centrifuge at 3000rpm for 20 mins. The resulting filtrate samples were diluted 10-fold in 20mM Tris, and 10ul of each was loaded onto a Zorbax 300-SB C3 column for protein quantitation. The amount of soluble lipolytic enzyme was calculated as a percent of the total protein at each ammonium sulfate concentration, based on soluble fraction concentration divided by the soluble fraction concentration that has no ammonium sulfate. The percent of soluble protein was plotted against ammonium sulfate concentration, a logarithmic curve was fitted with the data. The percent of soluble lipolytic enzyme protein at 1.45M ammonium sulfate concentration was calculated based on curve fitting. This number (% soluble protein) was used to compare the solubility of the lipolytic enzymes. The larger the number, the more soluble the variant is. Tables 2, 3 and 4 report the percent (%) soluble protein of P. mendocina variants were the substitution 40K, 109K or 183K has been introduced. As shown on Table 2-4, the introduction of substitution X40K, X109K and X183K results in a significant increase in lipolytic enzyme variant solubility compared to variants lacking those substitutions (also referred to as parent lipolytic enzymes, see SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:11, SEQ ID NO:13, SEQ ID NO:15, SEQ ID NO:17, SEQ ID NO:19, SEQ ID NO:21, SEQ ID NO:23 and SEQ ID NO:27). An increased protein solubility observed for the lipolytic enzyme variant compared to the parent lipolytic enzyme in the ammonium sulfate precipitation assay method described herein is reflective of an increased solubility under fermentation conditions at high cell density of Bacillus strains used for production, and thus improve the recovery yield of the protein of interest.

EXAMPLE 3 PET hydrolysis activity (polyesterase activity) of P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme variants Enzyme Activity Assay on PET substrate The enzymatic activity of lipolytic enzyme variants was tested by measuring the hydrolysis of PET Pellet (Polyethylene terephthalate) substrate in solution indicating it has polyesterase activity. PET pellets were purchased from Scientific Polymer Products (Cat#138). One PET pellet (20-30mg) was added to each well of a microtiter plate (Nunc, 267245) and detergent solutions were added as follows: 180ul of Tide® Original detergent (Tide, manufactured by Procter and Gamble, purchased in 2020) (0.875g/L) with 11mM Tris-HCl and 7 gpg water Hardness Ca:Mg = 3:1. A set of plates without PET were also set up to serve as controls for enzyme background. A 20ul aliquot of each enzyme sample was added per well to initiate the reactions. The reaction was carried out at 40°C for 20 hours with shaking (150 rpm) in an incubation shaker (Infors HT, Multitron). After incubation, 100ul of the reaction supernatant was transferred into a new UV-transparent plate (Corning 3635) and absorbance was measured at 240 nm on spectrophotometer (Molecular Devices, SpectraMax plus 384). The resulting absorbance value obtained after subtracting absorbance from enzyme background plate was taken as a measure of PET hydrolysis activity. The PET hydrolysis activity is reported as the absorbance values divided by enzyme concentration in OD/(mg/L). Each variant was assayed in triplicate and in multiple enzyme concentrations. Table 6 shows the PET hydrolysis activity (polyesterase activity) of various lipolytic enzyme variants. Table 6. Polyesterase activity of various P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme

As can be seen on Table 6, the variants described all display polyesterase activity in detergent of levels well above the P. mendocina WT parent. Furthermore, multiple previously described variants (PCT/US2022/020560 filed on March 16, 2022) with amino acid substitutions similar to the lipolytic variants described herein also displayed polyesterase activity. EXAMPLE 4 Improved solubility of P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme variants The solubility of P. mendocina lipolytic enzyme variants (% soluble protein) was measured by precipitation with ammonium sulfate as described here. A concentrated solution of 3.6 M ammonium sulfate was prepared at in 20 mM Tris pH 8. The clarified culture broth samples were filtered in MTPs, and 40 ul of each broth was added into a well of a 96 well plate (Costar #9017) and mixed with 60 ul of ammonium sulfate solutions (of varying concentrations from zero to 3.6 M) in triplicates. These assay plates were incubated at room temperature with shaking for 30 mins. After this incubation, the resulting slurry mix was transferred to a 96 well filter plate (Millipore, MSHVN4550), and the filtrate was collected by centrifugation on a benchtop centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 20 mins. The resulting filtrate samples were diluted 10-fold in 20 mM Tris, and 10 ul of each was loaded onto a Zorbax 300-SB C3 column for protein quantitation. The amount of soluble lipolytic enzyme was calculated as a percent of the total protein at each ammonium sulfate concentration, based on soluble fraction concentration divided by the soluble fraction concentration that has no ammonium sulfate. The percent of soluble protein was plotted against ammonium sulfate concentration, a logarithmic curve was fitted with the data. The percent of soluble lipolytic enzyme protein at 1.2 M ammonium sulfate concentration was calculated based on curve fitting. This number (% soluble protein) was used to compare the solubility of the lipolytic enzymes. The larger the number, the more soluble the variant is. Tables 7-9 report the percent (%) soluble protein of P. mendocina variants where the substitutions X40K, X109K or X183K have been introduced (singly or in combinations) into three lipolytic enzyme parents, G061D-T177R-F226L(SEQ ID NO:31), I178L-S244E-L258F (SEQ ID NO:38), and G059Y-F180P-S212D (SEQ ID NO:43), respectively. The PET hydrolysis enzyme activity (polyesterase activity) of the parent lipolytic enzymes and variant lipolytic enzymes were measured as described in Example 3 and reported in Tables 7, 8 and 9.
